What is a Hip HOpera you may ask?
A Hip HOpera is a regular theatre production with one major difference…the script is read entirely in rap!

Well it is the first one

Well it is the first one we've put on but maybe if it goes off in Sydney we'll be able to scrape up some funding to do it in other locations. Sorry!
